Apple Cider Thanks

Happy Friday!  I'm so glad the weekend is almost here.  I've been hit hard by seasonal allergies and the last couple days are kind of just a fog.  I'm hoping to catch up on some stamping and sleeping this weekend! Oh, and my nephew's 5th birthday party!   :)

I picked up some of the fabulous Apple Cider papers from Imaginisce at a local craft store the other day and couldn't wait to play.  But I love the paper so much, I didn't want to cover it up!  So I tried to use materials that allowed the paper to show through.  The sentiment from Dream Big is stamped on a Label 10 die cut and matted with an embossed vellum label, inked up with a little Vintage Photo ink.  The side border uses one of the Tim Holtz On the Edge dies and is matted with cherry cobbler.  To embellish, I pulled out a few goodies from Pizzazz Aplenty...some Sasha lace layered over a sheer lace from my stash, a gold mulberry flower over three cut out leaves from the paper, and some light coffee pearls to adorn the label.

Okay, that's all from me today!  Thanks so much for stopping by!  Have a fantastic weekend!
